STEREOFOUND

A collection of ‘non-music’ and ‘oddities’ on vinyl, found at thrift stores and flea markets. Think of stereo-test records, jingles, sound effects, instructions, spoken word, language courses and, well, basically everything recorded out of the ordinary.

It’s got all the usual sounds and scenes you can find on many sound effect record from the sixties and seventies. This record wasn’t meant for filmmakers or DJ’s though: “These staged demonstrations, some provided for humorous relief, illustrate how vividly a picture can be created through the art of stereophonic recording.” …at least, that’s what it says on the back!
Some of the included scenes: Stereo Balancing Test, Racing Sounds, Thunder and Lightning, Bowling, Fire Engine and Traffic, Harbor Scene, Shooting, Ping Pong Match and Trains.
